    • A comparison of ground vibration due to ballasted and slab tracks 

      Ntotsios E.; Thompson D.J.; Hussein M.F.M. ( Elsevier Ltd , 2019 , Article)
      With the development of non-ballasted track forms (often referred to as slab tracks) over the few last decades, it is important to understand their behaviour with respect to ground-borne vibration compared with the traditional ...

    • A semi-analytical beam model for the vibration of railway tracks 

      Kostovasilis, D.; Thompson, D.J.; Husseinb, M.F.M. ( Academic Press , 2017 , Article)
      The high frequency dynamic behaviour of railway tracks, in both vertical and lateral directions, strongly affects the generation of rolling noise as well as other phenomena such as rail corrugation. An improved semi-analytical ...

    • Mitigation of railway-induced vibration by using subgrade stiffening 

      Thompson, D.J.; Jiang, J.; Toward, M.G.R.; Hussein, M.F.M.; Dijckmans, A.; ... more authors ( Elsevier Ltd , 2015 , Article)
      Railway-induced ground vibration is often associated with sites with soft ground. Stiffening of the subgrade beneath the railway track is one particular measure that has potential to reduce the vibration level at such ...
